Hunt Scanlon Media: Canadian Executive Search Market Recovery Expected by Second Half of 2021
What’s the current state of the Canadian executive search market, and what impact has COVID-19 had on the industry? Waterstone’s President and CEO, Marty Parker weighed in on those questions and more as part of Hunt Scanlon Media’s Executive Search Review: Canada Recruiting Special Issue:
“Once the pandemic passes, said Mr. Parker, the country’s ongoing transition to a digital economy will have the biggest impact of all. ‘Talent will move more freely between companies as there will be less need for relocation, and search firms that can find how to better assess fit in the new digital culture will offer the greatest value to their clients,’ he said. ‘Search firms that are nimble and that can speed up the traditional hiring process without comprising quality or fit will benefit most.’”
